An indispensable Christmas dish of ancient times was �frumenty� of �frumante.� Here Is the recipe for making the dish according to a faithful old chronicler: �Take clean wheat and bray it in a mortar until the hulls be all gone off, and seethe It until It burst, and take It up and let It cool; and take clean, fresh broth and sweet milk of almonds or sweet milk of klne and temper it all; and take the yolks of eggs. Boil it a little and set It down and mess It forth with fat venison or fresh mutton.� Frumenty was often served alone without venison or mutton. When served by itself It was well sweetened.
